The monsoon circulation is expected to gradually go towards a weaker phase in the next one week across Central and peninsula India.

 Currently, the monsoon trough over India is oscillating about its normal position. Expected to move Northwards. 

Heavy rains are expected over northern parts of the core Monsoon zone including Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat Region and east Rajasthan during the next 72 hours in association with the developing low pressure system. 

Later on after 10th August, the monsoon trough is expected to move further north into the Indo Gangetic Plains and the Himalayan foothills bringing in a prominent break type Monsoon situation over the West coast and central India. (excerpts from Vag, Gokul)

The season's first Deep Depression and the first one this season to have a genesis over land and intensification with a  long track across the width of India represents a typical text book kind of synoptic system of the Indian Monsoon circulation. One can notice that the major rains were all along the south of the system's track. This system was responsible for the highest all India daily mean rainfall and larger rainfall anomalies of the core monsoon zone so far this season. Literatures and past observations say that Monsoon depressions add a major rainfall percentage when they occur and this system is no different. The latest All India cumulative rainfall departure stands at ~ +7 %.
